If you’re like me, and your external hard drive seems to call it quits yet all your music is on that hard drive there is an easy way to migrate your data. This works too if you just want to move your music to another hard drive. Firstly I’m in OS X so the migrating from hard drive to hard drive part might vary… but the iTunes location part shouldn’t change. The problem with my failing hard drive was it would run alright for a few minutes than stop responding, so dragging and dropping 80 gigs of music in the finder was out of the question.

There is a bit of a flaw in protecting mp3s from being downloaded from streaming music sites. The streaming content is cached in your temporary internet files. You can locate your cache directory in firefox by typing in the address bar about:cache. In chrome for windows it will be: C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\ or C:\Documents and Settings\[USERNAME]\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\, for mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default, for safari: ~/Library -> Cache -> Safari, for IE: you can GFY for even using this browser in the first place.

Whenever I listen to Bloc Party it really brings back memories and feelings of a certain time in my life. I was first introduced to them 3 or 4 years ago during the autumn season, and listening the brand new album ‘Intimacy’ them now, on October 31, really brings me back. I remember riding the bmx around in the cold crisp air, with the brown leaves starting to fall, gray skies, wearing a warm scarf, and grande vanila americano with a smooth leon jimenez cigar. How poetic, I know. Laugh all you want, but I do miss this indeed, and right now wish I could be home to rekindle that. On the subject of bloc party, the new album intimacy (released oct 28, 2008) is pretty damn good. I did an ‘index of’ search and found the full download of bloc party – intimacy album here.
